Hi there id like to say ive managed to read a lot over the internet and look through guides on how to overclock but i had a few questions in purticular but before i ask them i figure its best if i tell yeall what hardware im running.

Alrightie then so this is my shindig ive bumped the V core up to 1.40 to this date and but that was with my Zalman 9500 Cooler and the temperatures were fine yatta yatta but i couldnt get it to be stable at that point i had my

Hyper Transport set to 4
Ocz Memory set to 166
Cpu Speed was 2635 Mhz
FSB was 240 i believe

My question is does anyone have recomendations how to get the best possible overclock out of my system im sure i have more room and im wondering if i should bump the Vcore any more then 1.4 now that i have my Zalman 9700 which i think is an awesome fan ideling on stock at 27 i believe i can achieve a good overclock not that these cpu's run very hot in my opinion is it safe to run the Vcore more then 1.41
and i have put the DDR the 240 before and it has run now i didnt do Super Pi test to test it but i didnt have any problems runnin the Ocz DDR 3200 memory at that speed i put ma cas to 3-3-3 and 8 and it is running at 2T so if somone else has this cpu with a similar setup and can recommend a good voltage and ohh a good voltage for the ram as well.

I just built a rig for my brother with the Amd 6400 X2 which is running at 3.2 im hoping to achieve atleast 2.7ghz out of this cpu lol since i paid aboot 300 bucks right when the duel cores went down in price aboot a little over a year and half ago ahh good ole days of 939 so yea i appreciate anyone taking time of their hands and i regularlly clean my system infact i just installed the 9700 which i took out the whole motherboard cleaned out all the fans voided my warranty of my OCZ Psu because to clean the fan i had to open it, it was wayyy too dirty and you couldnt see the blue light.... haha what good is it buying a psu to see a blue light without being able to see it right.

1) drop the HTT multipier to 3x,
2) increase your vCore and watch your CPU temps while doing so,
3) try to keep the command rate set to 1T as A64 CPUs loose quite a bit of bandwidth when using 2T,
4) if you are not concerned about memory overclocking keep them set to DDR-400(200MHz) by using a memory divider.

Theres a good socket 939 guide in the OC section posted by barbaossa (spell) for the asusa8n board.

The Bios on the asusa8n32SLI deluxe that I had was a little confusing.

The NB-SB option in multiples up to 5X was critical to keep the HT to around 1000 (FSB*NB to SB)-youve already got it at 4x with 240 so thats ok. Any higher needs three. You also need to make sure the PCIE settings are set as shown in the guide for stability.

Once you have those two sorted its just a case of finding the limits of the memory and cpu by tweaking timings and the FSB (5-10mhz at a time). Personally I wouldn't bother with high volts on the cpu if the OC is not stable at 1.44v. Just raise the FSB with about 1.4v till the cpu wont post and then pull it back a little till its stable + doesn't load above 50oc. That will give you a starting point for further volt tweaks and give you an idea how far you can go.
